I loved the atmosphere of the hotel. It was luxurious and very classy for what I paid (35% discount). The room was amazing with an awesome view of the harbor. It felt sooo relaxing and clean and modern. I loved the bed and linen. The shower and toilet was clean with luxurious soft towels. Tv was fantastic and all other entertainment gadgets were great. What an amazing wonderful romantic stay we had!! Thanks for the best ever relaxing treat. Will definitely be returning. Thanks again!!.
all reviews » My thank you to receptionist Isabel;a top reception from a listening and caring front office representative. Also,good marks for the staff member who attended to room 601 . Breakfast buffet:the missing pump handle on the coffee was replaced for the following morning's sitting.Thank you all. Great laundry work by the staff ...the bed linen was tops !! cosy and snug accommodation:try it as a selling point. We liked being near the city and having a slight view of the harbour. The walk to the station was easy. I liked the coffee it was hot and tasty. Our friends stayed on another level so it was great to have them so near. We could afford to stay in the hotel it was a fair price. We normally stay in a motel in CBD but everywhere was booked out but we were able to book in to Rydges North Sydney & it was great, being a lovely spacious, clean room with a balcony, we will definetly stay there again.

The breakfast buffet was fantastic. Centrally located with parking. Nice room. Comfortable bed. very clean room and homey. Great bed , very quiet. Breakfast. Very Quiet. The room was reasonably spacious and the bathroom was well equipped. Sound- proofing was excellent and there was none of the corridor noise that you often encounter in other hotels. Restaurant Mundo which had good spanish tapas menu and service was excellent. Bed was comfortable. Room was spacious and decor was presentable. Location was great - staff at desk and in the breakfast room very friendly. Excellent breakfast - except for the coffee:-). We have stayed in a few of your Hotels this is the first time at Nth Sydney location great. loved the view and the size of the room. The buffet breakfast was very nice. Close to Sydney and relatively safe area, newspapers in lobby. Good value ,close to everything ,frendly staff. Room tidy and bed a good night sleep. The bed and pillows were excellent. Hotel location. Very friendly and helpful Staff. Excellently located in the middle of North Sydney. Staff were very good, breakfast great. Room was nice and comfortable. Well the elevator was a bit of a downer as it was faulty that weekend and I was not going to walk 6 flights but it didnt dampen the experience. $11 per lamb cutlet with mash , at dinner ,was a steep charge,although the chef's work was spot-on. Missed you roast tomatoes at the breakfast buffet. We thought the bed was very soft and it hurt both our backs. No other issues. Nothing only criticism would be could have refurbishment. Paying for car parking and Internet. Bathroom are basic and need modernising. Parking facilities not efficient. Inspite of paying for parking, only top level open and very limited carparking until after 5pm when hotel open second level and there are signs that they are reserved for companies. When parked on second level, car was dented by objects on the wall. No warning that cars should parked with front in! Warning sign only on first level. Cars leaving has to press button on wall, no sensor on gates and very inconvenient!. No movie channels I was not offerred a daily newspaper Slow elevator. I felt the roomwe stayed in, more expensive with the removed bedroom and balcony, that it needed to be further modernised to justify the price. Breakfast was luke warm when it should have been hot and even the cups of tea were tepid. Not good enough for the price or for a hotel of this standing. The tempature of hot water .it was luke warm . nice hot bath or shower would have been great. No overhead light in main room area. I had to get out of bed to turn off reading lamp. Shower over bath is dangerous and difficult for older and less mobile people. The bathroom could use a facelift. Tiles are tired and cracked. shower over the bath,my husband has to very arthritic knees and found it very difficult. I booked with parking but it wasn't registered on the system. They then tried to charge me extra. Parking was full - had to park on the street. Having to pay for parking, Sydney council are greedy. The audio system in the room we used was dreadful with dead spots/cut-outs all over the place. Nothing this time. But previously the lifts were not functioning. Some reception staff were not the most attentive and friendliest. Did not seem to care and did not check booking properly. The cost of the room. The shower wasn't quite upto the excellent standard of the rest of the room and hotel. was thinking abt the park view but got a room on the 1st floor :/. Food menu very limited Not enough healthy choices for children or adults .very few vegetable choices .mash or broccolini was the total . Found dirty knife behind a chair. quote was different to the payment made to the hotel They said it was because there was an increase in the parking fee. maybe follow this up. Problems with the elevator. The bar fridge in the room was circulating warm air only and we were informed that there was no maintenance service on weekends. Staff said the problem may have been reported previously but there were no records to check if it had. Also the room light (a floor lamp) was not working so the only illumination was the bedside lamps. Not good enough. Signage of hotel was difficult to see thus had problem in locating the place. Door to verander was bolted so couldn't open it for fresh air. Air condition gage was hard to control. Receptionist staff could be friendlier. Reception area. Look rather dark. Didn't have complimentary bottled water in the room. Also hair dryer was not working. Good coffee was available only at extra price. The regular coffee at the breakfast was unfortunately bad. Bathroom was in very poor condition -it was clean, but old. Definitely needs a renovation. The bathroom had very severe mould in grout, this is a cleaning issue but one that is not really acceptable, you would not have this problem in your home for a guest ??? we travel a lot and I must say you see it overseas but not here in Australia . Sadly the mattress and pillows were way too soft. Elevators non functioning for whole stay, car park elevator out of order , 9th floor elevator buttons non functioning, ordered a well done steak room service then had to chase it around the paddock , it was still mooing it was that raw. Shower, wasn't clean enough & pressure was terrible. Parking charge was too high. Lifts were very unreliable. Maintenance of bathrooms, reception staff bit average, they need to learn better customer service. No pool. Overall aspect quite grubby and run-down, although clean. Very expensive for the offered package. Lift not working - no assistance with bags provided, small bed, very small. old and tired room, bathroom from the 70's. harbour view mostly building view. not value for money. Noisy airconditioning. No staff at desk on arrival, rang bell 3 times. Staff gave us no advice on facilities such as car parking and breakfast. Tried to tell us we hadnt paid for parking. Price for breakfast ridiculous for what was offered. Extra for "harbour views" ridiculous. We could barely see water frrom our room. No-one at desk when we checked out. Very poor and never again at Rydges.
